About Our Unit

Company D of the 7th Tennessee is dedicated to preserving the memory of the men and women involved in the Civil War.

We are a regiment composed mainly of participants from Massachusetts and Connecticut. Our event locations are all over New England, New York, and a few of our fine Southern States. Our regiment is a proud member of the Liberty Greys, 6th Regiment, of the Army of Northern Virginia(ANV).

We are family-oriented, in that our camp life is equally as important to us as our military representation.

We want to look sharp on the field of battle, know our drill manual and do whatever is necessary to bring battle scenarios to life.

We also believe that by providing civilian scenarios to the public, we can add another dimension, often overlooked, of the Civil War. We welcome and encourage civilian impressions, such as politicians, journalists, visiting wives and families and itinerent musicians. All these impressions add flavor and diversity to our hobby!

Authenticity in attire, gear and behavior is also important to us. We do allow the use of certain modern conveniences, at the discretion of the individual, but we do insist that such items be put away, or otherwise disguised during the hours the camp is open to the public. Wooden boxes, blankets, gum blankets and canvas covers can be fine camouflage for anything "modern".

Finally, we like to have fun! A quality living history portrayal can be fun and historically correct. This is a hobby, and meant to be enjoyed.

The 7th Tennessee, Co. D, denounce in the strongest possible terms, the practice of racism, racial supremacists, hate groups, or any other group or organization that promotes hatred, distrust, or suppression of any minority or ethnic group, or misuses or desecrates the symbols of the United States or the Confederate States of America.
